Which came first: the chicken or the egg? (Note: egg = essence, and chicken = existence)

The past three weeks of my college education have been filed, exclusively, under the heading of "existentialism." My literature courses, my philosophy courses, everything is permeated by Sartre, Dostoevsky and that Kierkegaard fellow

Yeah. Despite my general dislike for the whole thing, it makes my head swim in ways that most other topics of philosophy don't. I'm considering investing a semester in existentialism. We'll see.

To be honest though, I never read a word of Heidegger or Dasein. Maybe I'll find something in there that I like, ha... though I guess I don't really read the stuff to find things I like.

I've only read Nietzsche's "uber mensch" stuff, which I think is, at the least, quite interesting.

If you're ever in Waterford, give me a call. We'll have to eat, and then beat up Chris Hartman, maybe take in a movie with him. It's lame, but the man lives across town from me and I never talk to him. I lack social initiative.

I just got your shirts from the post man, marked "return to sender." I guess I had the wrong address for you and the Mrs. Please fill me in on the correct info, and I'll get them to you as soon as possible.

Thanks bud,
